Re: Globe motor modification
This is a great trick. We also did this on our 2004 bot because we needed higher RPM and torque wasn't really an issue.
No issues with inspectors once we pointed out the rule. They thought the shortened gear box looked funny. I'm glad to hearsome one else is doing it. Now if only I could figure out what it's for... |

Re: Globe motor modification
We were just looking at the same thing last night (shortening it). I don't see how there would be any issue, since plenty of precedent exists for modifying the output shafts of Globe gearboxes, and the F-P gearboxes, which FIRST seems to treat similarly.

Re: Globe motor modification
I am confident that it is legal as well. I can think of no rule interpretation that would make this illegal. This is no different than teams modifying the FP transmissions which is very very common.
